Simple Economics Lyrics

The volunteers were tired
Heads were hanging low
The news had spoiled their appetite
For stuffing envelopes

Twelve points was an awful lot to be down in the polls
With only two weeks to go

Shouldering the phone
Loosening his tie
His running mate on pricks and pins
Hovering beside

The candidate wrote furiously as if to save his life
Then hung up the phone and spoke with great conviction

When you're nothing but a boyfriendPedro The Lion - Simple Economics - http://motolyrics.com/pedro-the-lion/simple-economics-lyrics.html
Dangling by a thread
Keep in mind the bottom line
Diamonds are a girls best friend

Inches from the goal
One thing on his mind
To get behind her desk and make
Some big decisions

Power can be such a tease, you're always wanting more
It's good to know that just like sex it can be paid for

When you're nothing but a boyfriend
Dangling by a thread
Keep in mind the bottom line
Diamonds are a girls best friend
